together in spirit

Art by Denise Drummond

     It's July! Independence Day has come and gone with the trials and tribulations of 2020. By now, Art in the Wilds would have set up and packed up our art show. Press Releases with words of 'Thanks!' would have been circulated to celebrate a job well done.
     This year, July marks the halfway point. We're virtual, as you may have heard through the grapevine. If there is only one positive to take out of this year is that we have been reminded, as human beings, that our greatest asset is our ability to adapt.
     By the power of a Cold War holdover that's turned into the Deliverer of Memes, the internet has opened up a whole new public park for Art in the Wilds to pitch their tent booths and show off high quality art. And we aren't the only ones! Read and listen to an interview with our own Merry Ryding with WPSU's Kristine Allen here: https://radio.wpsu.org/post/central-northern-pa-3-big-arts-festivals-go-virtual .
     Remember to take advantage of this year's disadvantages and browse ours, and others', virtual shows. The art is still around, one just needs to change the way they acquire it. Visit our virtual show through the link in the header or find it directly here: http://www.artinthewilds.org/2020-virtual-show.html
     Participating artists from Anthony Arkus to Evian Zukas-Ogus have their virtual booths right on the Virtual Show launch page. Support the arts in any way you can! We all look forward to hearing from all our visitors we've missed in person this year. Fingers and toes crossed that we can reunite and meet new faces next year.
​     Look forward to some artist showcases here on the blog over the next couple months until September 7th. Stay safe out there!
